Books:
by Title: Around Brockport
Throughout the 20th century, Brockport residents and visitors
shared their experiences, sending postcards of the town to
friends and family. These postcards present the important places
and events that made visitors come back year after year and made
residents proud to call the town home.
This book complements the author's pictorial history Around
Brockport in Arcadia Publishing's Images of America series.
Along with Brockport, the towns of Sweden, Clarkson, and
Hamlin are included in this extraordinary collection of
postcards.
The vintage
postcards in this volume span a century of the area's history,
presenting a portrait of the streets, buildings, events, and
disasters that impacted the time and preserving the memories of
the past for future generations.
